Best Family Style Restaurants in Foggy Bottom

The Tabard Inn is one of my favorite spots in DC. I especially love bringing out of town friends for a relaxed cozy setting to catch up and feel at home.

It was our first time in happy hour and it was amazing.

The food was outstanding! So glad they opened up in DC. I am a big fan of their sister restaurant in Philly. I have to say, the DC restaurant’s food was better! Don’t get me wrong, they are both fantastic, but DC’s was awesome. They had a mushroom appetizer that was so crispy and flavorful. The chickpea small plate is incredible!! Highly recommend it. Also, the chicken entree was so juicy and delicious. I’ll be going back many more times.

This restaurant was one of my staples for lunch, dinner, and happy hour. But, I had never been to the weekend brunch. I had extended family in town for the holidays, visiting from France, so my son and I decided to go here after asking the two teenage girls what they would like. Like always, it did not disappoint. The service was excellent. Our waitress was so accommodating. We choose some of the following dishes: Albóndigas – absolutely delicious Pimientos De Padrón BOQUERIA B.E.C* Huevos Horneados Tosta De Aguacate Torrija – this was the absolute best French toast I have ever eaten. With a side of - Gambas Al Ajillo My son felt like we ordered too much food, which we did since there were five of us. We left so much food, NOT because it wasn’t great but because I wanted to ensure everyone had dined sufficiently. As in the previous post, please don’t judge me 😂 I’m not a wasteful person. This won’t be a last brunch visit; believe me.

We had great time! Excellent food and service! Waiters were kind and warm. I recomend 100%
